Some time ago, I got the JRE, but had the same problem as the OP. This box is CentOS 5.3 (32 bit) fully updated. Firefox 3.04.14. I have jre1.6.0_13 installed. In usr/lib/mozilla/plugins when I make the link, as the root user, the permissions seem to be the same as for the link for libflashplayer.so but when I go back to my regular user account and launch Mozilla Firefox, it crashes. Is that because I had the java.com site open in the browser, before making the link as the root user? I removed the link, temporarily. What do I need to do, to make the link work properly?
